Chooz Score Insights
Owner on the Job
Les Brooker doesn't just run the business - he's on the ladder. Mark Ferguson first noticed the crew working in his neighborhood and was impressed enough to walk over, only to find the owner personally on site painting alongside his team. That hands-on approach carries through every phase of the project, from estimates and color consultations to final walkthroughs:
- Les personally handles every estimate, guides color selection, and works alongside crew members Leroy and Willie on job sites - customers describe his "quiet confidence" and willingness to explain each step of the process
- The Chooz Score's owner engagement indicators are strong: Les is mentioned by name in the vast majority of reviews, and he responds to over 90% of them with personalized replies that reference specific project details
"Les shows up every time! His workmanship is outstanding and he took the time to explain to me the process which gave me all the confidence in the world I've chosen the right guy." - Kyle J., Google Review

Questions to Ask Remarkable Painting
Warranty terms and coverage
While Les's owner replies reference using "lifetime materials" and one listing mentions "guaranteed satisfaction," the specific warranty terms, duration, and process aren't clearly outlined. Before starting a project, ask directly: "What does your warranty cover, how long does it last, and what's the process if I notice an issue after the job is done?"
"Les assured me that if I discovered anything else, he would be back to make it right." - Judy J., Google Review (no owner reply)
